How a Long Distance Couple Uses Selfies to Feel Closer Together

Engaged couple 28-year-old Li Seok and 23-year-old Danbi Shin are both artists from South Korea, but traveling for work means they’ve been separated for some time. Currently, Seok is in Seoul while Shin is in New York City. To document their lives apart, but bring them together, the pair started a photo collage project called “Half and Half.”

“We were sad to be apart,” Shin told BuzzFeed News, “I just wanted to embrace the romantic and normal moments as an ordinary couple…eating cereal and watching taxis go by together.”
